Yu Dongdong swiftly fetched the box of Qinghualang that Jiang Tao had specified.
It seemed like he was afraid Jiang Tao might change his mind.
"Here you go, Master Jiang! Your luck today is really something! I bet this box might at least win a second prize!"
Yu Dongdong handed the wine box to Jiang Tao with a cheerful smile.
The second prize was a bottle of the same Qinghualang, worth 1499.
It's equivalent to a buy-one-get-one-free deal.
According to the official winning rate, the second prize has only a 3% chance, not so easy to win.
"Haha, I'll take your word for it!"
Jiang Tao chuckled as he pulled out his phone, scanned and paid Yu Dongdong 1499 yuan again, and then started to open the box.
He opened the wine box, took out the bottle, and with a click, twisted open the cap.
Staring at the QR code inside the cap, even though he was mentally prepared, Jiang Tao still felt a bit excited!
If nothing unusual happens, he could scan a first prize again, which means another 2500 yuan!
Ding!!!
Jiang Tao used the scan function on WeChat to scan the QR code.
[Congratulations, you have won the first prize!]
"Won again!!!"
Seeing the message on the phone screen, Jiang Tao clenched a fist in excitement!
"What prize?"
Seeing Jiang Tao's excited look, Yu Dongdong's curiosity was instantly piqued, and he leaned over to take a look at his phone screen.
Upon seeing the winning notification on the phone, Yu Dongdong looked at Jiang Tao in shock.
Another first prize??
Is the first prize's winning rate that high!
Does Qinghualang want to go bankrupt??
"Congratulations, Master Jiang! Your luck is just unbelievable! Another first prize!"
After his initial shock, Yu Dongdong congratulated Jiang Tao once again.
He was simply astonished by Jiang Tao's incredible luck, not envious.
The profit from his supermarket in a day could buy one and a half bottles of Hongyunlang.
"Hahaha, yes, today's luck is just amazing! Last night's dream came true!"
Jiang Tao laughed heartily.
Winning two big prizes in a row, his mood was, of course, extraordinarily good!
Yu Dongdong spoke up again, egging on Jiang Tao: "Master Jiang, don't you want to take advantage of this good streak and get another bottle?"
"Another bottle?"
Hearing Yu Dongdong's suggestion, Jiang Tao was delighted but pretended to contemplate it seriously, showcasing acting skills that could beat many young actors.
"Alright! Last time, no matter whether I win or not, I definitely won't buy anymore! As the saying goes, 'things come in threes', and if I win again, that would already be the limit."
"Give me that box! It looks the best to me!"
Jiang Tao first put on an act to mentally prepare himself.
Then he pointed to the last wine box that was sparkling in his view.
"Alright! I'll get it for you! Your luck today is strong, this bottle will surely win! I wish you another first prize!"
Yu Dongdong said with a grin, turning to fetch the wine for Jiang Tao.
Jiang Tao swiftly scanned the QR code on the counter, paying Yu Dongdong another 1499 yuan.
"Here you go, Master Jiang!"
Yu Dongdong handed Jiang Tao the box of Qinghualang he pointed out, with a look of someone ready to watch the show.
Although he verbally wished Jiang Tao could win another first prize.
In his heart, he absolutely did not believe Jiang Tao could win another first prize!
Keep in mind, for this Qinghualang event, the first prize winning rate was less than one in a thousand!
Winning two first prizes in a row was already extraordinary luck.
There's no way he could win a third time!
Unless... there's no unless!
"Lucky Cat, bless us! Let me win another prize!"
Jiang Tao pretended to put his hands together in prayer to a Lucky Cat perched on Yu Dongdong's counter before starting to open the box.
He quickly opened the wine box, took out the bottle, opened the cap, and scanned the code!
Ding!!!
[Congratulations, you have won the first prize!]
"I won!!"
Even though he was mentally prepared, Jiang Tao was still extremely excited when he saw the result!
"Oh my... Master Jiang, your luck is astounding!"
"You should hurry up and buy a lottery ticket! Maybe you could win 5 million tonight!"
Seeing that Jiang Tao had scanned another first prize, Yu Dongdong's chubby face lit up with a spectacular expression!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it was true!
Bought three bottles of Qinghualang, and won three first prizes in a row!
People wouldn't believe it even if it were said aloud, they'd think he was a Qinghualang stooge!
"Hahaha, today's luck is incredible, I definitely have to go buy a few tickets later!"
Jiang Tao's face beamed with a radiant smile.
Early in the morning, winning three first prizes in a row, scoring premium wine with a total value of 7500 yuan.
Who wouldn't be happy!
"By the way, Boss Yu, do you buy this wine here? That Hongyunlang is too premium, I can't bear to drink it, if you do, I'll sell it directly to you."
After the excitement, Jiang Tao looked at Yu Dongdong and shared his thoughts.
"Yes, we do! Are you thinking about selling all three bottles of Hongyunlang?"
Upon hearing Jiang Tao's words, Yu Dongdong's eyes also lit up.
The profits in famous wine reselling are also quite notable.
Besides Maotai, brands like Xijiu, Hennessy, Martell Cordon Bleu, and Remy Martin are relatively rare in the market and tend to retain their value better.
Others like Wuliangye, Jiannanchun, Qinghualang, have resale prices that are much lower than their retail prices!
The Hongyunlang that Jiang Tao won, even though its retail price was as high as 2500, if resold, it would go for only 70% of that!
"If the price is right, I'll sell it, how much per bottle?"
Jiang Tao looked at Yu Dongdong and asked.
It was also his first time selling such expensive wine and he had zero experience in this area.
"We are old acquaintances, Master Jiang, I won't swindle you, for resale, I'll give you this figure."
Yu Dongdong's chubby fingers tapped a few numbers on the calculator on the counter.
Jiang Tao glanced at the calculator and saw the number 1750!
This price met Jiang Tao's expectations!
Jiang Tao confirmed with Yu Dongdong: "Boss Yu, is this the price for one bottle?"
"Pahaha, of course, that's for one bottle, even as a hard bargainer I wouldn't give you that price for all three!"
Yu Dongdong was amused by Jiang Tao's question, his fingers clicked on the calculator a few more times.
"For three bottles, this is the total!"
Jiang Tao looked at the calculator, and the number on it changed to 5250!
5250!
After subtracting the 4500 cost he had just spent, he made a profit of 750!
Jiang Tao attempted to ask: "Do you buy these three opened bottles of Qinghualang?"
"If you bought them elsewhere, I surely wouldn't, but..."
Yu Dongdong looked at Jiang Tao and said:
"Since you bought them here and opened them right in front of me, if you want to sell, I can offer you 400 yuan per bottle at most."
Bought for 1499, only to be resold for 400, not even close to its original price!
However, the bottles were opened, he had taken the grand prize from them, so, of course, the price would take a hit.
Can't say Boss Yu is being harsh.
"Never mind! I'll keep these three bottles for myself! To entertain guests during the New Year!"
Jiang Tao thought about it for a moment and ultimately decided to keep the three regular Qinghualang bottles.
After all, they are good enough to stand against Maotai.
Surely tastier than those on the market going for three or four hundred.
"Alright then, Master Jiang, keep them to enjoy, they taste good too."
Yu Dongdong didn't insist, and immediately transferred the 5250 yuan that was calculated earlier to Jiang Tao.
Jiang Tao handed over the three winning bottle caps to Yu Dongdong, and the transaction was complete.
Jiang Tao ended up with three bottles of good wine with a retail price of 1499 each, while also making a profit of 750 yuan.
